TDM in The News

Recommended Posts

TDM in the German magazine Gamestar once again, this time in a Top 10 Fan Remakes special article.

 

By the way, this thread could be renamed to something like "TDM in the news" by now and also pinned to the top. :) I am always searching for this thread.

+1 What I never get about those guys is why they always try to be "funny". At least they have used screenies from one of my missions, so I'll put mercy before justice and will not criticize them even more ;)

They have to justify their existence somehow. I can't really stand to watch commercial reviews for that reason. Youtube reviewers are at least down to earth, the ones that know how to speak without sounding like petrified chicken anyway.

 

Edit: not that I'm complaining either. Publicity is publicity.

What do you see when you turn out the light? I can't tell you but I know that it's mine.

"This mod isn’t simply a celebration of the acclaimed Thief series using Doom 3’s engine, but actually an improvement on some of its features, especially the wonderful and engaging new lockpicking system."

 

Cool! :)

An interview on a Hungarian site where I talk at length about modding, and TDM in particular.

 

You have an interesting surname, Melan. And thank you for the article. I'm going to give it a read. :smile:

Where did that image come from btw? I don't recall seeing it before.

 

Ah, hadn't seen our moddb update yet.

Why isn't TDM on this list? Maybe some people who are registered at Gamestar.de can put it into the comments, as they asked for more suggestions at the beginning of the article:

Come the time of peril, did the ground gape, and did the dead rest unquiet 'gainst us. Our bands of iron and hammers of stone prevailed not, and some did doubt the Builder's plan. But the seals held strong, and the few did triumph, and the doubters were lain into the foundations of the new sanctum. -- Collected letters of the Smith-in-Exile, Civitas Approved

Nothing bad about getting props from an Irrational dev (or LGS, it's not clear by the screenshot. Either way cool.)

 

Edit. Breakdown of the thread as I get it.

- A guy complains about the SS2 controls.

- Other guy slams him for being a PC gaming newb.

- First guy comes back, actually I was a SS2 dev. Here's the source code.

- Everybody watching :o

- Later on, probably when asked what game to play that's like oldschool LGS games, he says play Darkmod.

That's correct. The imageboards are anonymous, but I think there are thread-specific user tags. ex-LGS dev is adb303.

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?
